Teesside Autodrome - Feb 7th - Practice

[David Wilson]

Yes I know it's a Monday but it's the best I can do. (Get your holdidays booked in now!)

Cost - £65 per car (£5 for passengers)
Requirements - A car with no fluid leaks - your own helmet
Gates open at 8:30. Track open 9:30 till 5. 10 minute break every hour for noise and a 20 minute break at 1pm for lunch. Gates shut at 5:30pm

I will try to find a tyre fitter with van to attend on the day but nothing sorted for that at the moment.

Medical cover will be on standby on the day. The bar will be open for refreshments all day.

Any more questions? Just post on here.


Many thanks,

[robrs2]

Well, i'm off work. but need to ge a shift on to have the car done.

[CrabsterDrift]

I'l get the word round to some non-dw user's Hopefully plenty will turn up!

EDIT: the BBC report is online now on the Tees homepage.

[GB / John]

Hopefully I will be there, gives me a month to sort the LSD or fit a welder.

[CrabsterDrift]

Right, Tyre changing!

If there is a good enough number of people to turn up at this event and we can get a decent enough number by next week (Please, ALL POST WHO's COMING) then Tyrezone from Hartlepool have said they will provide us all with their mobile unit!

But we do need the numbers and I need to know who is definitely up for coming to let them know how many we could expect!

I am going to let them know how much other people tend to charge for fitting of tyres at other drift days then they will probably charge around about the same.

Please can you put your name on a list though and continue it if you want to come to this day though, just so i can show them who/how many are attending!

Thanks, Cal.

Haha that's funny, didn't think you worked! Show them how you intend to carry on and get a holiday booked straight away. They'll love you for it. Honest. They wont mind too much. Maybe.

[David Wilson]

Callum, if your guys at Hartlepool can't do the tyre fitting, the place across the road (A66 Tyres) can do it and they can take orders for 2nd hand rubber in advance too. Might be a better idea to keep it local.

Maybe it will be better to go with them as they know the circuit too. Tyrezone hadn't even heard of the track before and will only come if there is a reasonable number.

Just got with A66 if they're that easy to please

I'll put my name to this in a hope a month is enough time to sort out the engine running issues. (4000 rpm then splutter, bang, miss.... bog down )
You know you've got problems when Calvert struggles to keep it drifting.... Big thanks to Jon for spending so much time helping me try and sort it on Monday, cheers bud.

On the up side he did like the amount of steering lock

Added me mate Baker, he says he'll be coming aswell.
He's the idiot driving this Sierra at Crail 3 yrs ago. Please keep tyres well away from the edge. lol

[nissanlover]

I didnt beleive it was true until i jumped on the pc and saw the thread, cant belive teeside is back on!!!

I havent got a car atm due to the financial season, is it alright for me and a mate to come up just as spectators? we'll pay and everything and we dont litter either as thats what i heard happened last time
